Apple Begins Making Computers in Austin

Apple is manufacturing its new Mac Pro in Austin and will begin taking orders for them on Thursday. The sleek black cylindrical desktop computer starts at $2,999 to $3,999.
A tweet, embedded below, from Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, announced the computers were being made in Austin.
Last year, Apple began construction on 39 acres in Austin for a new campus to eventually total 1 million square feet of space. The company has about 3,500 employees in Austin already and is expected to double its workforce in the next 10 years.
